What did I get myself into
So after I went though the service records I found that the large pano roof had been replaced by the dealer and I will to bet that they didn't get the drain holes hooked up correctly. I will dig into that later. Here is what it needs now before I can put it on the road. Front tires Get the suspension working The stereo navigation not working Drivers Mirror, flopping around Drivers door trim, someone bent it up after locking the keys in the car I conclusion: I think the car sat so long that the computer had time to dry out, I hope that it won't come back as long as I get the roof fixed. It's in the garage for now. So I have a really nice 03 X5 3.0 for sale in California with only 150K on it.

Drive it like you stole it, because that is what you did.

Good find! You got me beat by about $850 and change (if I don't count my labor time for the motor repairs)... I got my 04 with just over 150K loaded for $2K... about a grand in parts and I'm stuck right where you are with suspension issues!
Congrats! Cheers!

Great catch! At that mileage though, I'd pull the front driveshaft and lube the splines to avoid a future replacement.
